It’s easy to break even and hard to make money.. there is a lot of competition from people who will do anything to undercut your pricing. You need a lot of things to do it well, and it all adds up. -Peter From: Af [ mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com ] On Behalf Of TJ Trout via Af Sent: Monday, October 27, 2014 10:17 PM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] Colocation Has anyone made a successful try at offering colocation and would like to point out some details on Do's and don't's? Seems like a great way to build additional revenue off of completely unused upstream bandwidth ? Is it worth the hassle and DDoS?
